There's instructions regarding VoLTE setup on the wiki: https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/OnePlus_6_(oneplus-enchilada)#VoLTE

That said, the one close-to-mainline phone Qualcomm SoC that's reliable for calls according to multiple accounts is the Google Pixel 3a.

Even then, it's hard to make blanket statements whenever it comes to VoLTE: It may work with the device for some one else, but as carriers are involved, it also depends on whether your specific carrier allows the specific device to use their VoLTE services.

(Given the fact that VoLTE is just VoIP, this feels really sad and unnecessary, but ... phone companies have always sucked, haven't they?)

many, many broken workflows

Sounds like many, many opportunities to contribute constructive feedback 😉️

I am once again happily asking for logo submissions to replace that current abomination - contributions welcome, contact details at the bottom of every page on https://linmob.net/.

i was dissapointet that there are soo few apps (speach linux phone app ecosystem)

If that's your take-away from my talk, then I really messed up. Things are developing well, IMHO. Yes, Android, even "FOSS Android"/AOSP or just F-Droid do have more apps, but F-Droid has been going since 2010 (and it's just so much easier to buy a device that runs an F-Droid compatible OS, it's not even funny).

It's also available on Flathub and packaged in some relevant distros - it's one of the far too few apps that are available on Ubuntu Touch, Sailfish OS, postmarketOS, Mobian, Droidian - a true #LinuxMobile marvel.

Select Halium devices do (e.g., FuriLabs FLX1, Jolla C2, Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC with Ubuntu Touch), but the issue is that it (AFAIU) also depends on whether the carrier agrees which IMHO gives these companies more power than they should be legally allowed to.

On mainline, there's 81voltd now (said to work on Pixel 3a, OnePlus 6(T} etc): https://gitlab.postmarketos.org/modem/81voltd

First, I'd recommend going with the 6 (no T), which has a headphone jack, which can be helpful - and on these devices is your only option for wired headphones, as USB-C dongles don't work yet.

Audio is unreliable, yes, not just for phone calls, also for things like podcast playback in my experience - at some point during use, my wired headphones just don't show up anymore. A reboot fixes this, I still want to look at 'milder fixes' (unloading of kernel drivers, service restarts), but in months of daily driving I have not got around to this yet.

How can I daily a device with these audio issues? Well, I have always hated unscheduled calls, and force people to deal with it now. Also, if things don't work: Reboot, call back, works.

It's just a report on what we managed to accomplish for LinuxPhoneApps.org, a project that

lists apps for Linux Phones like the PinePhone or Librem 5, that run Linux distributions which do not have a proper (de)centralized app store yet.

That an app was added does not necessary mean it is new or anything, just that it was added to LinuxPhoneApps.org's app list. It may be years old (and may have worked on #LinuxMobile for a long, long time, but we just missed it before. And the again just refers to the previous quarter ;-)

Here's the wiki page: https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Nothing_CMF_Phone_1_(nothing-tetris)

The FLX1 did not have DP alt mode either, unless I am totally mistaken. All external display concepts for the FLX1 were/are to require sth like DisplayLink. So all that's lost are file transfer speeds over USB.

From what I could gather, they wanted to make more of the original FLX1, but could not get the a manufacturer to do that. I am actually not too unhappy with this one, the orginal FLX1 was too big and heavy for my liking.
